I have important news: my LibreWolf port for OpenBSD now *works perfectly*!
See: https://codeberg.org/vimuser/librewolf-openbsd-port
Latest patch: https://codeberg.org/vimuser/librewolf-openbsd-port/commit/b66909dff671dfae9350b3db84c60b0a32cff9e9
I compiled the master branch on OpenBSD -current (7.9 snapshot).
I rewrote the port again, this time making only the most surgical changes relative to www/mozilla-firefox.
LibreWolf uses mozconfig, so OpenBSD CONFIGURE_ARGS has no effect; I provide a patched mozconfig at build time.
*Everything works*. I rocked out to some tunes, and read some news.

@libreleah Nice, now port GNU Icecat for extra fun

Just doing some minor polishing, ready for submission to openbsd ports team.
They're already in release mode, so who knows if this will land before OpenBSD 7.9. I hope I can get it in the release.
LibreWolf is similar enough to FireFox, and my port is conservatively-enough engineered relative to www/mozilla-firefox that it fits well into their infrastructure, with little friction. For all intents and purposes, it is essentially the same browser as FireFox, just without the enshittification.

My port is ready for submission; I will soon submit my port to the OpenBSD Ports Team for review.
This branch shows what I will send:
Branch name labelled submit1, because I anticipate that they may ask for a few changes. So the expected 2nd draft would be sent to submit2, and then submit3, and so on.
Yes. With any luck, they *might* merge my patch for 7.9 - my changes, relative to www/mozilla-firefox, are quite conservative and done in the most surgical way possible.

@libreleah thanks for the port successfully tested on 7.9-beta!
